“Between Bodies” finds the indie collective simultaneously reaching the most quintessential version of their cinematic, twilit sound while challenging both themselves and the listener. The album pairs compelling, impressionist post-rock landscape with narratives of love, death, existentialism and the human condition. Yet despite the experimental nature of the EP, The World Is a Beautiful Place has managed to craft what is likely their most melodic, infectious work thus far. Between Bodies presents a fascinating snapshot of one of the most creative bands currently writing music, unafraid to push against boundaries in their inspired explorations.

The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die are playing at the Broadberry with The Hotelier, Rozwell Kid and Posture & the Grizzly on Monday, Oct. 27.
